    The “Pretty Woman”/”(500) Days of Summer” Fountain and Park

    ‘ Another Downtown Los Angeles location that my fiancé and I stalked this past weekend was the water fountain and park which appeared in both fave movie Pretty Woman and not so fave movie (500) Days of Summer.  I discovered this location way back in September of 2007 when I was called to serve as…

    Palm Springs Weekend!

    ‘ This past Friday morning the Grim Cheaper and I headed out to Palm Springs for a little three-day getaway and, while I did manage to sneak some stalking into the trip, I was unfortunately not able to write a blog post for today. But I will be back tomorrow with a whole new location,…

    The Southern Hotel from Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” Music Video

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper often accuses me of beating a dead horse.  While I typically don’t agree with him, today’s post is pretty concrete evidence that he’s right, because here I am yet again with yet another article about the diner from Michael Jackson’s 1983 “Beat It” music video.  Today actually marks the fourth time…

    Harry’s New York Bar

    ‘ Every year while in New York, my boyfriend and I make it a point to stop into the Helmsley Park Lane Hotel located on 59th Street. I love stepping inside the Park Lane’”‘”‘s beautiful lobby with its grand winding staircases, red antique rugs, and twinkling crystal chandeliers. I don’”‘”‘t know what it is about…

    Patrick Swayze’s Former Apartment

    ‘ Ever since the Grim Cheaper purchased the Dirty Dancing: Limited Keepsake Edition DVD for me this past Christmas, I have become just a tad bit obsessed with finding out more behind-the-scenes information about the movie.  So, the other day I picked up Patrick Swayze and wife Lisa Niemi’s autobiography which is titled The Time…

    Going on Vacation!

    ‘ I am currently on vacation in L.A. with my family and will not be publishing any new blog posts for the next week or so.  Our trip is planned to last two weeks, but we are keeping things up in the air depending on how my dad is feeling.  I will definitely be back…

    Whitey Bulger’s Former Apartment

    ‘ It is finally that time of year again – October 1st, the start of my Haunted Hollywood postings.  And I could not be more excited, so let’s get to it!  The October 2013 issue of Los Angeles magazine featured an absolutely enthralling article about the arrest of the infamous Boston mobster James “Whitey” Bulger. …

  • The “Even Stevens” House

    The “Even Stevens” House

    ‘ Though I am a tween at heart, for some reason the 1999 television series Even Stevens, which focused on the life of seventh grader Louis Stevens (Shia LaBeouf), was never on my radar.  In fact, I don’t think I had ever even heard of it until a fellow stalker named Britt posted a comment…

  • “The Mary Tyler Moore Show” House

    “The Mary Tyler Moore Show” House

    ‘ Well, after three days and a whopping (insert sarcasm here) three tests (including a blood test, an ultra-sound, and a CAT scan, each of which my dad has undergone numerous times with his doctors at home over the past two years), we have been discharged from the Mayo Clinic sans diagnosis.  The doctor’”‘”‘s sole recommendation…
